LONDON JOURNALS. [FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.] [Morning Post .] THE LATE QUEEN, &c. The preparations for the funeral are nearly completed. Yesterday morning Messrs. France and Ranting 's. Assistants commenced hanging with black the large dining-parlour or le+ll, itt Kew Palace, in which her late Majesty is to lie 4 in state, and erecting a grand canopy under which the coffin is to be placed. The admission is to be limited to the Royal Households, and to the day previous to the funeral, which is expected to ; 7 2 take place next Tuesday or NVednesday, provided every thing can be completed in time. All the r State observances and grandeur will he used on the solemn occasion, under the circumstances that such a number of distinguished characters cannot attend it as if it had been fully a public funeral of H the Queen of England ; in that case, her remains tvould have laid in state in the Painted Chamber. 1. The hearse will be drawn by eight of her late Ma jesty's black horses, and driven by her State Coach dt man. No mourning coaches are to follow, but "' all the Royal carriages, including the King's, the l a te Queen's, and the Prince Regent's, drawn by black horses none of the Royal Family will be in them till they arrive at Frogmore, 'I he Q , teen's carriages will be occupied by Mrs. Beck , endorff and other attendants of the late Queen. p. Numerous detachments from the Life Guards, and the Royal Horse (luau's, with their bands, rt: trumpeters, kettle-drums, &c. twill form part of 7 . the procession, which will also be joined a party of the Lancers. It will proceed at a slow pace till it arrives at Fro more, flout which place the road and streets leading to St. George's Chapel will be lined with the Foot Guards, under arms, every sixth man holding a lighted flam beau. • The procession will be formed at Frogmore as it is to enter Sc. George's Chapel, with the ex ception of those in Windsor Castle. 'the Prince Regent will enter as Chief Mourner, upon which occasion his Royal Highness's train will be borne by tour Marquisses. Tine hearse is to be guarded by the King's Body Guard, and forty of the Yeomen of the Guard, who upon this melancholy occasion will appear in full mourning with their arms reversed. The Queen's Crown will be carried on a cushion, covered with black. Her late Majesty's pall is to be held by six Dukes ; the Prince Regent will sit at the head of the Coffin, the Chamberlain at the foot ; and the Royal Attendants will stand during tine last awful ceremony being performed over the remains of our late beloved Queen. THE KING'S JEWELS.—We have authority to contradict the statement in some of the Papers yesteray, of Messrs. It undell and iiiidge having had the cute of the King's Jewels. Neither these, nor the %41uables of the same description belonging to her late Alajesty, were ever deposited in their house. Messrs. Rut - idyll and Bridge never had any other charge of tie Queen's di,- monds turn merely the conveying them to and from the Bank of England on occasions when they tvere used 1)7" their Royal Owner ; and even when her Majesty' , jetvelic were cleaned, the work was HilVidyS perfOrMtd at the Qiieen's }'dace. As to the Elitig's jetvds, Messrs. Runde I and Bridge never on airy occasion had the core of them, and therefore all the statements that have appeared upon this subject are utterly void of foundation. Tlre King's jewels, we are informed, have been missing ever since J-ne last [The 7silnes. - 1 PRIVAIE CORREsPoNDENCE. DECLARATION OF THE ALLIED POWERS. Aix la Chcrl,ellr., Nov. 21, Satin day, 3 o'clock, e M. I have it now in my power to-day, to send you four Documents*, which may be considered as the most important results of the Deliberations of Congress. ')'!laugh the Declaration, about which I bad previously spoken so much, was not signed till the 15th instant, you canimt fail to perceive how acc , :ratc ly I h a d, in different letters, pointed out the course that would be pursued with regard to the alliance which it announces. This is not the Declaration which' it was originally intended to publish. It has undergone t'lre , lt modifications. You will see, in this Declaration, the indication of future meetings of Congress. The first of the documents which I send you is a Note of the Nlini , ters of the four Allied Powers, addressed to the Duke of Richelieu on tke 4th in atant, inviting the King of France to join their alliance, for the " more general and cornprelicn- liive objects," to which, in spcakin4 of the Ciihi 3druple Alliance, I alluded. The second is the answer of the Duke, on the 12th, acccpting, in the natne of his Master, the invitation tendered. The third is the'Protocol signed in the sitting of the 15th instant, in which the general principles ,gf the subsequent Declaration were agreed to. The last k the Declaration itself of the business 1. which Congress Iris executed, and of the object ': 1 !Or Lillie!, the future alli,ince of the Powers is to b:.! Maintained. These documents speak for them ! selves, and require no further comment from me. As the business of Congress is now terminated, this town is emptying very fast. The King of Prussia depaited yesterday morn- ing, fir Berlin, with the greatest quietness. His 111,1jesty, who dislikes very much uny Mud of ce muony or parade, probably wa_s averse to the ob servance'; of a formal parting. He, therefore, went away two days before the Emperor of Rus sia's arrival, issuing himself (as I have been told) hi s own bulletin, and declaring himself indisposed. His Majesty passed quietly through Cologne, which had been illutnitwed two nights (the Nth and 19th) in honour of his guest, the Emperor of Austria. Tire Duke of Wellington arrived here from Brussels, to sign papers and per- For thesellocun:ents, see our subsequent columns, form other tontine duties connected with his mis sion.

The following-are extracts : " PAtirs, Nov. 22.--The King yesterday went to Vincennes. " His Majesty has remitted the sentence of de l►ortation awarded against Robert Babeuf, in the affair of Nain Tricolore, on condition of his find ing bail to the amount of 3000 francs, to abide the surveillance of the High Police, under which he is•to remain for 20 years. " A letter from St. Quentin states the follow- ing occurrence :—Two men went into a cabaret and died immediately after having drank a glass of wine. The carabatier, who was about to be arrested, wishing to prove to the Authorities that he was ready to answer for the good quality of hk wine, drank a glass from the same bottle, and immediately fell dead. The cellar was then ex gniiilCd from whence the bottle had been taken, when a serpent was found in a state of putre faction. " Valenciennes was surrendered to the National Guards of that town .on the 19(1( inst. and (he 52(1 English Regiment immediately set out for Calais. " The Austrian head-quarters, after all the co lutnns had passed the Rhine, quitted Colmar and the department of the Upper Rhine nn the 11th instant. FIVE PER CENTS.

" The King of Prussia, it is thought, will not depart before the 19th. " RAsTADT, Nov. 1.5.----The Duke of Glou cester has arrived at Constance. His Royal High ness proposes to make the tour of the Lake. " VIENNA, Nov. I I.—The reports which have for some time been circulated in several Public Journals, of pretended steps taken by the Em peror of Austria with the view of changing the place of custody of Buonaparte, ate all absurd fables, and merit not the least attention." New York Papers to the 30th ult. arrived this morning. (From the Nett, York Commercial Advertiser of the 29th.) IMPORTANT.—We have it from authority which we deem next to official, that our differences with the Court of Madrid ar'e settled. The Floridas are ours, and our Government is to pay the Ame rican claims against Spain. With due deference to the authority from which the foregoing is derived, we beg leave to doubt its truth. We are as satisfied that the Floridas have not been transferred as Mr. LANZ is that they have. The extent of what has been done, we believe, is the renewal of the Spanish Treaty of 1802. That the Floridas will be ours we have no doubt, but they are not so at present, at least we have reason to believe that they are not.— information of this kind, which goes to make our Govetmucnt assume the debts of Spain to our Citizens, may induce speculations among those who have suffered front Spanish speculations, and which may be attended with injurious conse quences. NoaroLK, OCT. 24.—(From Martinique.)— Captain litssELL, who arrived here on Wednes day from Port Royal, has favoured us with a file of Martinique Papers to the 30th Sept. ;—they give an account of a hurricane experienced at that Island on the 21st and 22d Sept., which did great damage both to the shipping in the harbour and the dwellings on shore. In. a Paper of the 26th is to Ordinance in the name of the King, which announces that the exportation of flour and cod fish will be allowed, and that of Indian meal, rye, flour, and rice, will be suspended until further orders. It, had been very sickly in the Torts of Martinique. H. B. N. Consulate, New York. itlt SRS . LANG AND TURNER,—I request you will give the following notice publicity. I am, &c. (Signed) 3.15.

" The yellow fever prevails, but by no meads formidable. We have had frequent rains lately, accompanied with thun der and lightning, which has been of great benefit to the city . The greatest mortality during the height of the fever, in one week, was 57 ; during this week, 42." The Portuguese Minister. Chevalier CortnEA de SERRA, and the French Minister, M. de NELT vILLE, had returned to Washington from Virginia. We hardly need recommend to the particular attention of our Readers the important documents which they will find in our Paper this day. We fully agree with The Times, to which the Public are indebted for so early a possession of them, that, in the arrangements which these documents exemplify, " with partial good as little general evil is united as ever did result from the meet ings of Personages who possess, conjointly, millions of men at their command." Cer tainly, as far as motives of national and gene ral welfare are to be considered, the seve ral Potentates have performed their work with justice and dignity, and are consequently entitled to the esteem and gratitude of mankind. But still this is a matter that depends on experience, and however wise the Monarchs themselves ar.d their Ministers may be, vet all wisdom is not con fined to them, and however presumptuous it might be in an individual to question the policy of removing the Allied Armies from France, yet when the opinions of any individual are support ed by those of a large body of mankind, he may surely venture to disclose his sentiments. The difficulty with which TROTH can make its way to Thrones, and even to Ministers, prevents them from having so full a knowledge of the grounds of action as men of great capacity, experience, a►,d power of reflection, in subordinate stations, must acquire, and we believe that a large portion of such men view the condition of France as still critical and dangerous. The JACOBIN SYSTEM alone is sufficient to spread alarm all over Europe, and till the general happiness and security of a Country shall keep that system under doe controul, no other nation can be safe. The Armies, we will venture to say, ought not to have left the French Territories till the full completion of the period originally determined. Have there not lately been Conspiracies in France, and have not plots been recently detected and happily frustrated at St. Helena, some for the elevation of the individuals concerned in them, and others to let loose a Monster who, it set at liberty, would again ravage mankind ? It is folly to acquiesce in the present, and not to cast a wary eye towards the future. We, t het efore, applaud the Allied Monarchs for the dignified philanthropy of their conduct, but we confess that we do not think that it has been overbalanced by their wisdom. But time will spew, and in the interim ire doubt not, that the Government of this country will be anxi ously on the watch to guard against the conse quences ,which may result from the arrangements in question, and to which our Governmen t could not avoid conceding, because whatever evils may arise from a premature determination, must operate upon all the other Nations of Eu rope before it reaches us, and from which we are not only protected by our insular situation, but by a naval power, which we trust will not be weakened beyond the most positive necessity, in compliance with the murmurs of ignorance and the clamours of Faction. Te refer our Readers to one of the most in teresting and affecting Narratives of an Escape front Shipwreck, in our Paper of Ibis day, that perhaps ever attracted attention and awakened_ sympathy. The meritorious efforts which -at length so happily succeeded on the occasion, dis play proofs of even romantic heroism and hu manity, and the names of the Parties should be conspicuously recorded, in order to excite emula tion, as well as to do honour to such extraordinary courage, perseverance, and ability. We ought in justice to the Journal from which we dcrived this affecting story, to add, that it is related with inte resting and impressive simplicity. OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS.
